Animals are stunned here in Norway but is still halal because a prayer of thanks is spoken to the animal before it actually dies. The same could surely be done in the UK.

Here's an extract and Google Translate English version because I'm too lazy to type out my own translation:

Here's an extract and Google Translate English version because I'm too lazy to type out my own translation:
Slaktemetoden Nortura bruker på sine slakterier varierer mellom type dyr. Storfe får en bolt i hjernen, før strupen kuttes. Småfe, det vil si sau og lam, får et elektrisk støt, mens kyllingene blir gasset. Takknemlighetsbønnen blir lest etter storfeet har fått bolten i hodet, men før strupen kuttes. Tilsvarende for de andre dyrene.
The slaughter method Nortura uses at its slaughterhouses varies between the type of animal. Cattle get a bolt in the brain, before the throat is cut. Small cattle, i.e. sheep and lambs, are given an electric shock, while the chickens are gassed. The prayer of gratitude is recited after the cattle have received the bolt in the head, but before the throat is cut. Similarly for the other animals.

Stunning it is somehow more humane? Don't think so. You're literally still killing it.

@DearAmbellina2113 Yeah, but the animal is unconscious for the end. No pain.
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
@LordShadowfire A fraction better I guess

@DearAmbellina2113 Humane slaughter is an oxymoron, but I'd certainly rather have animals suffer less rather than more, especially at negligible cost to the consumer.

Well this is in the UK, not the US. Thankfully.

Yeah, they can.

Then why do they keep voting for a party which tries to deny voting rights to gay people, let police officers kill black people with impunity, artificially limit the supply of housing, and deny women equal opportunity in the workplace?
Conservatism (at least the mainstream conservatism that makes up most of America) believes in liberty, freedom, the rule of law and free market capitalism. Mainstream conservatives do not oppress anyone, at least not with direct actions.
